Thats right folks, the call for action; it's time to go fishing. After enduring the hottest summer and early fall in history, and un-cooperative fish, a weather change has finally come. And with the weather change, it is almost guaranteed the fish will start the delayed fall fishing all out bite. All the rain of today will push the pogies out the river so they should be on the beach fronts in a couple of days, the mullets are everywhere, and the spots are not far behind.
 
 
This weekend we finally had some dock excitement as several boats that fished the stream all had decent catches of wahoo. Also they found football blackfins, which are candy to the wahoo. As the water cools down a little, the wahoo bite should go wild.
 
Inshore the King fishing has been terrible, but sure enough, Saturday we weighed a 36+ King that came from the 90/90. Meanwhile, Team OIFC fishing the Atlantic Beach King Classic couldn't buy a bite for 2 days. All that should change with the cooler weather coming. Looking at the long range, after the rain and the cold front passes, appears to be long period of stable clear beautiful fall weather. The Kings will go crazy starting next week in the River channel and Yaupon, and eventually will move down to Shallotte Inlet, hopefully perfectly timed for the Fall Brawl.
 
So in the immortal call to action words of "Grandpa Mac".....gentlemen, start your catfish!. It's time, finally.
